I'm running a phpbb2 forum with a few hundred members, this forum is highly modified and quite removed from a vanilla phpbb2.
When I use an importer what actually happens? does it change the already existing tables or does it create new ones based on the same information?
Will I be able to import into a new database on the same server and still keep the old database going at the same time?
I can sacrifice some stuff but cannot afford to lose the basic data in the users table.
I know this has probably been asked before but I want to make sure I don't destroy my old forum while I'm building the new one.
Thank you
